Circumcision of the Heart

Posted by on March 6, 2022 at 6:26 am

Circumcision of the Heart      Physical circumcision is the cutting away of flesh. Religious circumcision is when men either cut out of their lives fleshly pleasures, or look to fleshly things in hopes of earning favor with God. It is man’s desire to make a fair show in the flesh to avoid suffering persecution for […]

The Truth of Thy Salvation

Posted by on February 28, 2021 at 11:56 pm

The Truth of Thy Salvation We come into the presence of God only according to the, “Truth of Thy Salvation” Ps. 69:13. So, what is the truth of God’s salvation? Perhaps the alliteration will give us some hooks on which to hang our thoughts. 1.      God is SOVEREIGN in Salvation. I will have mercy on whom […]

Our Immutable God

Our Immutable God An old Greek philosopher once said; “the only constant is change”. He was never able to find any purpose behind this ever-changing world and ended up taking his own life. Truth is, everything is in constant flux, but not without purpose. The Lord changes not (Mal.3:6). He is the same yesterday, today, […]

All powerful “free will”

Posted by on February 2, 2020 at 8:15 am

It is a universally accepted fact that man has a free will. Menpride themselves in believing that they are able to override the power of God with this all powerful “free will”. This lie claims that in the final analysis man decides the destiny of his own soul, and that God has made himself subject […]

Saving Faith

Saving Faith is not believing that you are saved; it is believing that Christ Jesus the Lord is the One and only all sufficient, successful Saviour. Saving Faith is not believing that you are elect; it is believing that you are a sinner completely dependent upon Christ for all your righteousness. Saving Faith is not […]

The Miracle of Hearing

Posted by on November 17, 2019 at 7:23 am

The Miracle of Hearing God-called gospel preachers spend a lot of time in prayer and preparation of the Word. They are deeply concerned with being clear and faithful to preach Christ and Him crucified. “How shall they hear without a preacher” Rom. 10:14. Paul asked rhetorically, “who is sufficient for these things”? I Cor. 2:16. […]

That which is perfect

When that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.” – I Corinthians 13:10When the “Perfect Man” comes, only then shall we see Him as He is and be made like Him. In the meantime, our faith is mixed with unbelief. Our love is mixed with selfishness. Our understanding is mixed […]

Not in Vain

Posted by on May 9, 2019 at 12:11 pm

Not in VainThe false gospel says that not everyone Christ died for will be raised to everlasting life. They say Christ died and was risen for everybody. But…most of the people He died for will not be raised to everlasting life. To which the Lord says; “If there be no resurrection from the dead then Christ is not risen: […]

Faith

FaithContrary to popular opinion, true faith is not the courage, strength, fortitude, and power of its possessor. True faith is what God gives to the poor and needy. True faith is the only hope the fearful, the weak, and the helpless have. True faith is the admission of one’s total inability. True faith is the acknowledgment of one’s total […]

Faith and Works

Posted by on March 17, 2019 at 8:39 am

Faith and Works There are many who call themselves Christians who would say a man is not saved by works. They then turn around and make a work out of believing or look to their works as evidence of their salvation. If by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no […]
